Inhaltsangabe

Bergin/Bergin's CHILD AND ADOLESCENT DEVELOPMENT IN YOUR CLASSROOM, TOPICAL APPROACH, 4e, provides future teachers with authentic, research-based strategies and guidelines for the classroom. Child development concepts are applied to relevant, interesting topics, including classroom discipline, social-emotional development and well-being, how to motivate learners and many others. Individual and group diversity among children is emphasized. Case studies and real-world vignettes bridge the distance between research and the classroom. By linking theory, research, practice and emphasizing application, the book helps teachers create an environment that promotes optimal development in children. With over 1000 new references, the book remains at the cutting edge of research. MindTap online learning experience with videos, applied activities, an e-portfolio and more is also available.
